Digital Defense Inc Integrates with Palo Alto Networks Cortex XSOAR to Automate Proactive Response Based on Vulnerability and Threat Risk

Integration Combines Digital Defense Frontline.Cloud with Cortex XSOAR to Quarantine High-Risk or Under Attack Assets

San Antonio – January 12, 2021 – Digital Defense, Inc., a leader in vulnerability management and threat assessment solutions, is now integrated with Palo Alto Networks Cortex XSOAR (previously Demisto), the industry’s first extended security orchestration, automation and response platform with native threat intel management that empowers security leaders with instant capabilities against threats across their entire enterprise.

Through this integration, Digital Defense Frontline.Cloud and Cortex XSOAR deliver the ability to:

1.Assess a set of assets within a network segment or specific domain as either under attack or at high-risk of being compromised.

2.Develop a playbook, based on either risk score or threat level, for identifying the assets in question and quarantining that segment to prevent the spread of infection and give administrators the time needed to take remediation steps.

Digital Defense Frontline.Cloud can leverage the power of Palo Alto Networks Cortex XSOAR – combined with its own unique real-time profiling, assessment of vulnerable assets and threat scanning – to provide customers a way to take immediate action, prevent the spread of advanced threats and mitigate the possibility of a successful breach.

“Palo Alto Networks is pleased to have Digital Defense Frontline.Cloud join our Cortex XSOAR ecosystem,” said Rishi Bhargava, vice president of product strategy, Cortex XSOAR at Palo Alto Networks. “This integration provides customers with enhanced threat protection using a next-generation cloud-based approach to address vulnerable systems and optimize remediation efforts before an attacker can further infect the network or execute a successful breach.”

“Customers face the difficult challenge of remediating high-risk or infected assets quickly enough to prevent attackers from spreading to other parts of the network and still enabling a breach. Leveraging Cortex XSOAR along with Frontline.Cloud helps our clients limit the scope of an attack almost immediately with minimal impact to the network, while giving security teams the opportunity to get ahead of the overall attack campaign before further damage can be done,” said Sanjay Raja, VP of strategy and technical marketing for Digital Defense. “In addition to our existing integration with Cortex XDR, allowing us to further enrich our real-time threat context and bring proactive threat detection to client’s security operations, we can now extend advanced remediation capabilities by integrating with Cortex XSOAR.”

Cortex XSOAR is an extended security orchestration, automation and response platform that unifies case management, automation, real-time collaboration and threat intel management to transform every stage of the incident lifecycle. Teams can manage alerts across all sources, standardize processes with playbooks, take action on threat intel and automate response for any security use case – resulting in significantly faster responses that require less manual review.

Microchip Adds 64 Mbit Parallel SuperFlash Memory to its Family of Radiation Tolerant COTS Based Devices for Space Systems

New Delhi, December 21, 2020 — To reduce the time, cost and risk of developing spaceflight-qualified systems, designers may start with Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) devices that can later be replaced by their space-qualified, radiation-tolerant equivalent parts available in plastic or ceramic packages featuring the same pinout distribution.  Microchip Technology Inc. (Nasdaq: MCHP) today announced a radiation-tolerant, 64 Megabit (Mbit) parallel-interface SuperFlash memory device with unrivaled Total Ionizing Dose (TID) tolerance for maximum reliability and robustness in the harsh radiation environment of space missions. It is an ideal companion to Microchip’s space-ready microcontrollers (MCUs), microprocessors (MPUs) and Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) that provide the building blocks for this scalable development model.

 

“The SST38LF6401RT SuperFlash device further strengthens our scalable approach to developing total space system solutions using our radiation-tolerant or radiation-hardened microprocessors and FPGAs,” said Bob Vampola, associate vice president of Microchip’s aerospace and defense business unit. “It offers the vital protection these space systems need for the most reliable digital processing where companion Flash memory is required to store the critical software code or bitstream that drives the complete system.”

Radiation-tolerant up to 50 kilorad (krad) TID, even while the Flash is still biased and operating, the SST38LF6401RT device enables systems to operate in a broad range of space applications where they cannot afford any loss of code execution that could lead to severe defects and system loss. It is an ideal companion to Microchip’s SAMRH71 Arm® Cortex®-M7-based radiation-hardened SoC processor and can also be used with the company’s RT PolarFire® FPGAs to support in-flight system reconfiguration. The device has pinout distribution compatibility with its industrial version for easy transition to the space-qualified plastic or ceramic versions at the Printed Circuit Board (PCB) level. Voltage operation of the SST38LF6401RT ranges from 3.0 to 3.6 volts (V).

 

Development Tools and Availability

The SST38LF6401RT SuperFlash device is sampling now in a ceramic version and supported by an evaluation board and demonstration software, available upon request. Also available upon request is an FPGA flight programming reference case for combining the SuperFlash device with an FPGA and a SAMRH71 processor with supporting software.

Microchip’s COTS-to-Radiation-Tolerant Process

By selecting relevant devices from its proven automotive- or industrial-qualified product family and adding silicon process improvements, Microchip gives them enhanced protections that make them more immune to single-event latch-up in heavy ion environments. The radiation performance of the slightly modified devices is fully characterized and supported by a dedicated radiation report for each functional block. The devices are used in applications ranging from launch vehicles and satellite constellations to space stations. Designers can begin system implementation with easy-to-source COTS devices before swapping them out with pinout-compatible space-qualified equivalents in high-reliability plastic or ceramic packages.
